all across europe and back to the united states robert gates displayed unbelievable specter of sincerity and candor providing he's honest and unvarnished assessment of the united states strategic at all who reach all across the globe and somehow i have a hunch that in his upcoming memoirs robert gates will explain his run unfinished dream that is to finish the job he initiated in his previous capacity as the cia chief when he opened up a pound or a box of extremism in pakistan and in afghanistan only to be called back to duty almost thirty years later to really gain the eval which is so carefully rared and proved in his previous capacity as the cia chief. social media has brought about

a communications revolution and has also helped spark revolutions as well as a tool to avoid government censorship and organized pressure within the arab world that's yet but is ever going to find out his own president report a new york have a thread of books and ask what people raff. in today's social media driven world you can post whatever hate speech doctored photos or other nonsense you want with virtually no consequences how do you feel about that defining our times this week let's talk about that i was talking a guy on facebook once and by mistake instead of writing his name into the search i put as my status was all cause i knew how to meet these things very quickly i mean everybody already see did you learn your lesson yeah yeah people just put anything on here young girls young kids you know home addresses and everything like i got a nice. open approach is

a. people see what you show them not what you actually are in my experience and if you put something on the internet people will watch and think that that's your life you know when when people could be sitting at home doing nothing for a whole weekend they might just make things up just to make themselves more interesting a lot of people tend toward being snotty or rude and they've been taught through television and other media that that's that's the new cool yet there's a shift in our culture going on that'll change as people start to understand that they end result of that is isolate you isolate yourself and you do that kind of stuff we need to be center of attention as the world just become a giant high school yeah i would say yes we are all it's just a big giant oh a high school we all hate it so why do we want to live it every day that's a good question and it's almost even in a more middle school that's sort of mean girl time and i think even adults get into

the bullying which is kind of sad but do you think that as we grow as a society people will get smarter about what's a post or will it just get worse and worse i think people always be people you're going to have people that are smart you can have people that are nots and i think it will be fruitcakes that put things on the that is just unhelpful and home. regardless of how you feel about the pitfalls of social media the bottom line is it's probably going to get a lot worse before it gets better if it ever it. arm wrestling is a sport generally associated with beefy nan but in russia school classes the women are flexing their muscles to out he's not even a question or has been getting to grips with some of them determined to become international stars. there is little clue as to why this quite corner of russia and the north caucasus hide such a powerful secret because as hair there we find perhaps some of the strongest women

in the country were there holding their arm wrestling talents will one day be shared with the world in the olympic arena. i mean a good cell of a began wrestling in nine hundred ninety four but now she's clearly a super woman with town world and fourteen year old gold medals worn in a small village in the mountains she says that she has achieved everything she wished for and now it's time for a younger generation to follow in her winning footsteps i mean as drake is concerned though is that there's poor it doesn't get the recognition she feels it deserves sometimes we simply don't have money to go to the championships after training so hard young girls are losing the stimulus to continue when they hear that there is no chance for them to go unless they collect the money themselves one thing that might change that would be if the word was made part of their lengthy games bringing more tension and financing competitive organize maja's began in

california in nineteen thirty two and soon gained real popularity arm wrestling is one of the most peaceful comedy of spore of that actually doesn't require any special equipment and people of all ages have a real chance of winning if i did something quite so there. was a chance of winning right now i'm going to check it out myself. so it's certainly an easy time. spending hours of the jam i've been as a trainee all reason as she doesn't know if she'll ever have enough money to go to the championships but she never loses hope. maybe it is an incorrect comparison but sport is like a swan for me once you get into there is simply no turning back i tried to start but i can't live without it and there will continue hoping that one the will will be recognised by the public. it seems like

a location women are following hard on the successful heels of their man who saved many of the world's models in almost all types of wrestling and with girls' hair seemingly determined to break the stereotypes we could soon see more and more high hills making their way into the wrestling arenas. my gentle art see the republic of the north. and later in the program another sort of woman russian tennis career sure if it be defined by a comparable screen with the remains of the symbol of success for a generation of young players like a wimbledon final to. refer to that international film festival in moscow has come to its dynamic climax with the way you know the best film going out and our correspondent peter oliver was that a family for. this year's winner of the coveted golden george award is the movie of the waves directed by alberto maya's it's astonishing movie seconds and you're in

you color the carpet these type of events usually read the. first of all good for green she was saying it's caused some problems when it comes to picking up perfect outfits i had a wonderful stylist that lives here in russia helped me pick out the dress and she brought me many dresses to choose from and i particularly like this one because it was like a piece of sculpture and it fit me perfect so i was happy to have it and she was lovely lovely lady well it's not just on the macdonald of course it had problems picking out what she was going so well i can ice for hours and hours this morning about what i was going to put on to make sure i looked right for this i'm sure you can so. rush and turn it down to reassure me know how won wimbledon this yet she still remains an inspiration for many players worldwide she wanted time and she was just seventeen first when her striking looks as well as her fanatic prowess i want her for a bio on and off the court has come daughter has been trying to find

a secret. that. was. the toughest part of the russians call it big tennis to distinguish it from ping pong much to the amusement of foreigners but now russia's racquet wielding darling has made it to the biggest tennis tournament the move since her win it wimbledon in two thousand and four maria mania has turned sharapova into a star off the court as well in peaches and catwalks she's joined the hall of fame with jaw dropping russian tennis we know but she only wants to talk about the tense i told myself to just take it one point at a time and. send and i thought i could just kind of got in my zone so we went down to one of moscow's toughest young tennis tournaments the club here claims to be the home of tomorrow's players so what do these young russians think of their compatriots examples. i think she's very positive and not everyone could have

such patients patience is very important in tennis. i've always liked her even when i was very young i started playing because i wanted to be like her and now that all are telling me i'm playing like her god now if you want to find a very strong inspiration from her i really like the way she claes she has very good technique choice fights until the end and never gives up one thing nobody can ignore about shut up over. that brute or scream or whatever it is we decided to sample some of russia's picture grimacing talent can make compete. but. you can't be one of the stars this club has turned out this catarina park over she was rent a tier in world under eighteen ranking. but she forged

a career in russian children for those people in america since she was seven doesn't that lessen her inspirational appeal so she was surprised she is a russian orthodox do you need to. continue working harder i might have to put in a few more hours more so. ok so i probably couldn't even beat these kids at a game of tennis but that's because they're out here every day practicing driven home by heroes like maria sharapova well maybe it's because they haven't mastered the all important role. that was done by scraping forty in moscow today to contract out more news and eye catching leaders on our website r.t. or call like read about the fifteenth exotic culture in moscow where weird and wacky meets past and here is the annual motoring about which has opened its doors
